Restoration of 1951 Vincent Rapide - Part 92 - Gas Tank jobs

I hope you will enjoy this video of a few jobs with the gas/petrol tank. Took a little longer than five minutes fix, but very happy with the results. As you will see when I remove the gas tabs from the petrol tank, I made a bit of a silly mistake in adding too many washers and there wasn't enough thread on the taps. Having said that, they did not leak gas! 📖CONTENTS ▶️ 00:00 Intro and video overview ▶️ 00:40 Flow test ▶️ 01:45 The Vincent conks out during the summer ▶️ 03:20 Removing the old gas taps / petcocks ▶️ 03:51 Cleaning the tank ▶️ 05:35 Removing the damaged pinstripe tape ▶️ 08:05 The gas tank after a great clean by my friend Dennis ▶️ 09:00 Fitting new pinstripe tape ▶️ 10:54 Fitting new gas taps / petcocks Here's a link to a video in which Dennis cleans and polishes the gas tank from my Norton Commando:    • oNe (Oregon Norton Enthusiasts) - February...   Here are the steps Dennie took for the Vincent tank: Using Griot products: 1st step was to clay tank using Speed Shine as a lubricant to keep clay from sticking to remove dirty air contaminants to get smooth surface 2nd step was to polish with Complete Compound to remove oxidation & small scratches & any other small imperfections & blemishes 3rd state was to apply a coat of carnauba wax for deep shine & weather protection. You have to apply products gently so as to not burn thru old paint. Enjoy!! The products that Dennis was using can be found at: http://www.griotsgarage.com They are are mail order car care products from a company called Griot's based in Tacoma, Washington and very well know in this field. There are other makers of the same fine products like McGuires and Mothers. However Dennis likes Griot's as they offer the complete full line of car care products and have an excellent catalogue listing the products along with their applications. Griot's offers a free catalogue online and provides online instruction/demonstration for their products; a very comprehensive company. This is how I approach some of these maintenance jobs so please remember to consult your owners manuals. I hope that you enjoyed this little “5-Minute-Fix" video.
